The pH value of a saturated aqueous solution of sodium disulfite is between 4,5 and 5,0. Sodium disulfite dissolves in water forming sodium hydrogen sulfite. At elevated temperatures (> 150 °C) or on contact with acids sulfur dioxide is generated. Sodium disulfite reacts violently with oxidising agents; e.g. with sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide. 4 Purity criteria 4.1 General This European Standard specifies the minimum purity requirements for sodium disulfite used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials leads to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of commercial product The content of sodium disulfite shall not be less than a mass fraction of 95 % (Na2S2O5). The concentration of sodium disulfite shall be within ± 5 % of the manufacturer's declared value. SIST EN 12121:2013
EN 12121:2012 (E) 8 4.3 Impurities and main by-products The sum of the content of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride shall not exceed a mass fraction of 5 % of the commercial product. 4.4 Chemical parameters The product shall conform to the requirements specified in Table 1. Table 1 — Chemical parameters Parameter Limit

For parametric values of sodium disulfite on trace metal content in drinking water, see [1]. 5 Test methods 5.1 Sampling Observe the general recommendations of ISO 3165 and take account of ISO 6206. Prepare the laboratory sample(s) required by the relevant procedure described in ISO 8213. 5.2 Analyses 5.2.1 General All reagents shall be of a recognised analytical grade and the water used shall conform to the grade 3 specified in EN ISO 3696. 5.2.2 Main product 5.2.2.1 General The sodium disulfite content shall be determined by the method for potassium disulfite described in ISO 3629.

EN 12121:2012 (E) 9 5.2.2.2 Principle Sodium disulfite is oxidised with a fixed volume of iodine. The excess of added iodine is titrated with sodium thiosulfate. The determination includes other sulfites in addition to Na2S2O5, therefore the second titration, as described in ISO 3629, is omitted for the purpose of this determination. 5.2.2.3 Calculation The formula given in I
